Proxy Access
All outbound http(s) traffic must go through the proxy - proxy.vmsrv.redbrick.dcu.ie (136.206.16.254) port 3128
Ubuntu
To make sure all your networking software uses the above proxy server, you need to add a file to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ and put the details into it. Here's how you do it:
~> cd /etc/apt/apt.conf.d ~> sudo nano proxy
You'll be asked to enter your VM password at this point, before nano starts.
In this new file (proxy), type the following:
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@proxy.vmsrv.redbrick.dcu.ie:3128";
Where USERNAME and PASSWORD are your RedBrick username and password (not your VM ones). Hit Ctrl-x, then "y" to save the details.
And that's it. Simples.
Outbound email may be routed through mailhost.vmsrv.redbrick.dcu.ie (136.206.16.254). Inbound email can not be accepted. For more information see the documentation on configuring exim to send mail from your vm
SSH
You can ssh to and from your vm from minerva
